We officially moved to PE yesterday! We are all getting settled in our new house and finding our way around this new place.
 
I don’t have much time to write now, but more to come soon. For now, keep us in your prayers as we begin to figure out our ministries here in PE and as we learn how to live and love in our new, smaller team.
 
My new mailing address is:
19 Trichardt Street
Port Elizabeth, South Africa 6001
 
Love and miss you all!

We’ve been in PE for a week now. Our house is pretty much set up, with neighbors and people from the church letting us borrow couches, chairs, a toaster and a washing machine.

Our team is getting along really well. So far its been really nice living in a real house, with a kitchen and couches and everything! We’ve spent some time getting to know our area and seeing some of the city. It’s a lot bigger than Jeffrey’s Bay, which is exciting!

On Sunday we attended our host church: Lighthouse Family Church, for the first time. The church has really opened its arms to make us feel welcome. There is a large population of youth and young adults that we will be getting to know during our time here.

This week and next week we will spend a lot of time going around to different ministries sites around PE. This semester we will get to spend more time doing actual ministry, and I am starting to get really excited! We’ve only been to two ministry sites so far, but both of them seem really great. I love getting to see the vision of passionate people who want to make a difference. It gives me hope!

Anyway, I can’t wait to really dig into relationships here. My heart is already getting attached to this place, and I know at the end of this 4 months I will feel like I am just getting started.

I am incredibly thankful for the chance to be here, and the ways God is already moving in this place and in my heart!
